This 3 story apartment addition sits above the garage of an historic 19th century building in downtown Fells Point, Baltimore. Modern in vocabulary, but respectful in massing and material, we maximized the buildable area by dropping the first floor of the addition below the original garage roof. This permits an additional story of space within the allowable height limitations. Clean, simple lines contrast the more articulated planes of the existing structure, highlighting its historic features.
